Assisting Fire Rescue

This is the 1st call to assist fire rescue with the new rotator. All we did was winch the cab up about 6 inches and hold it. Although it wasnt much they got to see the new truck spin.

Very Nice! How are they getting you to the scene when they request you to assist in an actual rescue? Are they providing you an escort?

 

Joe Driscoll said:

Thanks for all the replys.
Devin we couldnt do the recovery because the rotator hasnt been inspected by the highway patrol. We assisted a fire department for a city we have a contract with.

Donny when they call us to help them we just get there the best we can. They give us no help at all.

Good job and beautiful truck!
If you need to get closer for a rescue and their hoses are in the way, just tell them; they can usually move them without much trouble. Next time they might ask for a lift instead of a pull. Especially after the demonstration and cross-training you are going to set up with them!
Thanks for posting. Rich

You know that sucked to have to turn it over. But with dad starting the wrecker / rescue back when we were kids & perfecting it throughout the years, he would definatly be happy that truck is sitting there now! Running the Code III's wont be the same from now on, will they!
